Newborn Kitten Care

 


Nadiah Johari:

Good morning everyone,

I found a new born kitten abandoned by his mother two days ago so I brought him home. I’ve read the new born kitten care from this website https://www.aspca.org/pet-care/cat-care/newborn-kitten-care and found that if “you have newborn kittens who’ve been separated from their mother, consult with a veterinarian, shelter or experienced foster care giver who can help you find a new mother cat with a small litter—she may be able to nurse the orphaned babies.”

If anyone is willing to let a mother cat to nurse the kitten, can you please let me know? Once the kitten can already drink milk by himself, I will take him back.



During the first weeks of life, a kitten’s body weight may double or even triple. Gaining 1/4 to half an ounce daily until they are weaned is considered healthy. Kittens who don’t gain adequate weight during this early period may not survive.
